Find this feature

From the Main Menu of your Site Manager, click Navigation Bar (in the Appearance column).

Introduction

When a visitor is browsing your website, they use the Navigation Bar to maneuver from page to page.  An example navigation menu appears to the right.

The appearance of your navigation bar depends on the layout (template) of your site.  Some layouts may display the navigation bar across the top, on the left, or on the right of the screen.

You can also modify the options that appear on the navigation bar by adding additional links, removing existing links, changing the words of a link, or changing where a link directs a visitor to.

The navigation bar does not appear on the home page (the first page on your site) on all layouts.  A visitor may have to click on a link from your home page before they see the navigation bar appear if you have one of those layouts selected.

Add to Navigation Bar

To add a new link to the navigation bar , fill in the Add a new link on the navigation bar area, and then click Add Link.

Link Name is the name of the menu option that appears on the navigation bar .

URL is the Site address that your shopper will go to when they click the menu option (see below for pre-created codes).

Font HTML, Background Color, and Background img can accept HTML color codes or location of an image file.  They allow you to change the color of the link.  These features do not work on all layouts.

Change Order on Navigation Bar

You can choose the order that menu links appear on the navigation bar .  To move an item up or down the list, click Up or Down next to the link you wish to move.

Edit Navigation Bar

To change a menu link, click Show Details next to the link.

Change the details of the menu link, and then click Apply.

To close the link without editing it, click Hide Details.

To make the menu link invisible on the navigation bar , select Hide.  This does not delete the menu item – you can un-hide it later.

Delete Menu Item

To remove a menu item completely, click Delete next to the menu item.

Add eMC Pages

eMerchantClub has created codes for several existing pages on your site, such as listing your promotions, listing your shipping amounts, and more.  Many of these will already be on your navigation bar .

If you have removed one, or would like to add another one, follow the instructions above to Add to Navigation Bar , and use the listed filenames in the URL field.  Copy the file name (e.g., AboutUs.asp) and paste it in to the URL field when editing a menu item, or adding a new one.

Add Custom Pages

If you’ve created your own HTML page (created on your computer, using the Page Creator, or using HTML Conversion), you can add that page to your website and have it appear as part of your layout, keeping your site’s look and feel.

First, make sure the file you are adding is included in your Upload Files section.  Next, follow the instructions given above in the Add to Navigation Bar section.  For the URL field, use the following code:

customhtm.asp?custfile=filename.htm

Replace filename.htm with the correct file name.

Examples:

customhtm.asp?custfile=links.htm

customhtm.asp?custfile=mycustomsite.htm

Hide Menu Links

To hide one or more menu links, check the Hide option next to an existing link, and then click the Update button next to that.
